I just realized: if SpongeBob’s parents are now retired, which they weren’t at the start of the series, that would mean that they have in fact aged. Which by proxy would mean that SpongeBob has also aged. But he hasn’t.

[@shinyagumon7015]

One thing I noticed is that despite shoehorning in everyone's parents a lot the writers seem to think Spongebob's parents are old retirees like the mothers of Mr. Krabs and Squidward. Which is weird because clearly they aren't, like Spongebob used to have a living Grandmother and now his parents are suppost to be Senior Citizens themeselves? Did his Grandma die off-screen?

If they kept Spongebob more as an adult in these newer episodes we may actually see bangers like the classics. I also hate how they treat Spongebob as mindless, Spongebob is not stupid he knows Plankton is not his brother

SpongeBob tryin not to remake old episodes challenge: 101% IMPOSSIBLE

[@ArloeMew]

Spongebobs tie doesn't make sense. He literally tied it on screen in an old episode. Under and over then through the loop and down the barrel...

[@ninjafrog6966]

5:16 to be fair, the only reason he was a one off character is because his voice actor died

[@YoSoySrRojo]

i’ll always love spongebob but they seriously just need to let it end at this point

[@AidenRKrone]

What is Nickelodeon planning on doing when one of the voice actors for the main cast dies? I'm sorry for asking a morbid question, but I'm truly curious. How are they going to replace Tom Kenny, or Clancy Brown, or Bill Fagerbakke? I wouldn't be surprise if they switched to AI-generated voices in the event that one of the main cast members dies.

[@ReddyToAnimate]

Easy. They’ll hire Tom Schalk who voiced SpongeBob in one of the Death Battle episodes and Uncle Al who voiced Squidward, Patrick, Mr Krabs and Plankton in his videos.

[@Trailbreaker3966]

Admittedly, I think the continuity spit. Anything released after sponge on the run belongs to the camp Coral/Patrick star show timeline, unless it pacifically shows something only in the original timeline like Patrick’s house

[@christophermoore6110]

It’s funny that they’re trying to make SpongeBob more kid like, but his voice is getting deeper😂

[@thejoeker3947]

Doesn't even sound like Spongebob 😭

4:28 This is the entire premise of Xavier: Renegade Angel S2E4 btw, they're stealing from obscure adultswim shows now

[@rickybobby5153]

Depressing. The entire reason these cartoons were ever even popular and stayed popular for so long was because both kids and adults could find them funny. The kids couldn’t understand the adult humour. That was the whole point.

[@Taylor92229]

SpongeBob is so busy now. Too colorful, loud and crazy/gross. Like most kid shows these days. Explains why kids are so wired I guess 😂

Season 14 feels like we’re going back in time.

Plankton in F.U.N: "usefull uranium!" Me: yeah, For eating.

[@someGuy-kl7cb]

i think the tie being a clip on is actually a pretty clever way to nod to a previous episode...even if it offers a bit of a contradiction. spongebob had a modern episode where he couldn't tie a knot, so it makes sense he would struggle to tie a tie, so he decides to use a clip on. he HAS been seeing tying the tie, but i think that CAN be explained off as "memorizing something he just learned" doesn't fix the episode, but i can respect it even if its a bit...proven wrong.

[@lionman9995]

Do the writers and animators have fun making this? Surely they don’t right?

[@Jack_Woods]

It sucks people are so quick to scoff when someone mentions Hillenburg's vision and immediately defend this garbage like we're all claiming to know how he thinks personally because there's no other way to put it, Hillenburg made this show so good and Nickelodeon was clearly the one always on his back changing or demanding things to make SpongeBob a marketable literal toddler show And to see it become JUST that, plus all the merchandise Hillenburg's exact worst fear of seeing floating around in the sea was, is now a reality, this IS a desecration of his legacy and everything he stood for, whether it's intentional or not, no one is calling the people responsible monsters who have this intention in mind but you can't deny that SpongeBob is dead thanks to their decisions, and that's not to get into petty semantics about the show's ratings, SpongeBob as we knew it, SpongeBob as the amazing show that it was, and as the quality show that earn actual awards and inspired so many people, has died, we are watching its corpse being shook in front of kids for cheap entertainment

[@Jack_Woods]

I hate it when people completely disregard very valid criticism of what these networks are doing, as "omg you just grew up! move on! this show is no longer for you 🙄" "who cares? it's a kids cartoon, you're an actual grown ass man angry about kids cartoons 🙄" "no they didn't desecrate Hillenburg's legacy just because they're not catering to grown ass men like you, grow up 🙄"

[@cim4406]

I mean but the insane thing is that people could just stop watching. It’s not getting better and it never will just from crying. All the ranting and raving does jack SHIT if you still watch. It’s not gonna get cancelled bc older audiences are complaining about it. It’s gonna keep going till ratings drop and as long as people watch it to complain about it it’s just gonna get worse 🤣

[@davanime877]

[@GeteMachine]

Spongebob doesn't know how to tie a tie in this episode even though he was shown doing it before in an older season? Well... when he was a free-spirited naïve adult...

[@doctorawesomeness6922]

Not only the show is running out of ideas, so as Plankton's plans to steal the formula.

Okay everything else is genuinely pretty terrible, but SpongeBob booping his dad on the nose through the split screen felt very classic SpongeBob and had some humor to it in the delivery.

[@andrewbaillie5549]

That barely is chuckle or charming

[@gipadonimus]

@@andrewbaillie5549 I'm not saying the context we got is good enough to deem it "charming," but in an older episode I could picture him doing that to Squidward specifically, and then hopefully hanging up immediately, instead of extending the call, which kills it the most here imo. Humor in the delivery because.. I mean it's Tom Kenney. His voice sounds rougher and the material they give him isn't great but I still think there's humor in the idea and he still has the energy to pull it off, is all I meant by that part. An og episode would have probably also had SpongeBob's hand go through the phone itself instead of passing over the split screen, and done more of a visual gag there tbh.

[@highwaystar4518]

the clip on tie bit made me laugh, thats so real.

[@Itsme-me-me]

How are the smaller characters from the first 3 season more iconic than SpongeBob himself at this point?

[@SailorMoonFriends]

It's just a rehashing, not a remake.

[@Vulpes_Ailurus]

Remember when this show had an ounce of pacing and didn’t feel like it was written by kids who snort pixie sticks like cocaine?

[@droptherapy2085]

What the fuck is with the sound effects. I mean, I stop watching TV for TEN YEARS man

[@cooltomlol]

On the topic about making SpongeBob like a kid, they kinda did the same thing with Grandmas kisses, but season 14 is worse

[@adogg281]

Plankton could have at least walked away from SpongeBob for some reason. I mean, he just can't tell SpongeBob about the secret formula unless Krabs tells him about that. It's possible that Mr. Krabs would give up the ownership of the Krusty Krab to SpongeBob and SpongeBob would probably make some changes for the restaurant. I knew that season 14 was an abomination. It never ends, does it? Someday it will, someday it'll happen. Even if Mr. Kenny would retire in voice acting if SpongeBob had a series finale. It's been there for over 20 years, man. Let the show die. Bring a new TV series that has nothing to do with SpongeBob or something. We millennials used to like that show during our time.

[@MaximumDestructionRed]

It really hurts me to see what used to be the best show on Nickelodeon is now just a dumb and annoying kids show that constantly nostalgia baits it's users that watched it since it's debut.

[@username5155]

This is just F.U.N. but if you only described it using other episodes. Like, there’s some Dying for Pie in there, I’m picking up a little New Leaf, and I don’t know why, but my brain’s telling me there’s some Sweet and Sour Squid as well? Probably the ending.

[@A_Random_Shroob]

This Plankton didn't go to college...

[@notsansutplays8178]

4:10 btw Ms/Miss is for women who aren’t married and Mrs is for married women. So it’s safe to assume it’s Mrs SquarePants.

[@nerdycookiebunny856]

3:14 I know spongebob Is stupid and childlike, but he shouldn't be this stupid to realize Plankton isn't here for a maclious reason. The ONLY time he's around spongebob is when its to benefit himself.
